Recently I purchased even more cories at PetSmart. Now say what you want about PetSmart but they have some incredibly great deals on fish from time to time....
Recently I purchased some Elegan cories at PetSmart as well, but in this instance there were only two. It appears however that one is male and the other is a...
The cory arcuatus is often called skunk cory. It is also known as the bow line. The dark stripe starts on the nose. runs up the head, over the back, and down...
They probably won't use the coconut. Depending on species, they may want something like a plant leaf, or root system, or the flat smooth glass wall or similar....
About a month ago, I went to the Aquarium Center outside of Baltimore, MD, and bought some Zebra Loaches. However, once I got home, I realized that one of the...
I looks a bit like a Botia robusta to me, but since it's a bad angle & yahoo shrunk the pic down so much I can't really tell what it is for sure.. If you could...

Yeah I clicked on the 1kb thumbnail that takes you to to the 14kb downsized pic, but it's not giving me the option to see the 89kb original size (it does...
... snip.... It was there for me. Maybe its because I'm founder/moderator. I can also edit/delete anything where only the original poster can do that for his...
I managed to get a better (sort of) pic of the little botia. Part of the problem with photographing it is its size. (Yes, that is a ghost shrimp on the rock...
Man that really is a little thing...but it sure looks like a baby robusta to me. They won't stay small like your striata & they're a bit more aggressive, but...
Ted, It's not different than the bronze aeneus corys. Condition them very well a couple of weeks before hand. By this, I mean very well fed, with very high...
... #1, they need to be mature enough. Close to a year old. Then you need both sexes. Females will be larger than males, and viewed from above, they will be...
Ok, this has got myself, my father, and the guy at the pet shop totally stumped. As of friday, I had 3 Zebra loaches, 2 Yo-Yo loaches, 4 skunk botias, a pair...
Just curious of a couple things... What else did you test for, how big is the tank, and what loaches are still there aside from the kuhlis? I have some ...
Well, the tank is a 120. I tested for PH, NH3, NH4, CO2, GH, KH, and then I did a water change. The only fish to die after the water change was the robusta. My...
At several guesses.....the skunk botias are being nasty......overcrowding has stirred up a bacterial infection problem........the jurupari is showing his true...
Ok so the tank's plenty big for what you have, and you're clearly thorough w/ the testing (that ammonia may have come from the fish dying). So that leaves me 2...
I'm kind of wondering about the temp also. If there is a discus, they like it way up about 86F. Some of the others would not be happy, but could do okay. Maybe...
I kept a trio of skunk botias for years. I still think they are some of the neater botias out there. I did keep them with African Mbunas, or Med sized Cent/Am ...
As of this evening, the tank is stable. All of my fish are accounted for (even the rubber-lip). The temp is up around 85, but it has been for almost 2 years...
Now that some people mention it, I have heard disaster stories about a city changing its water purification habits out of the clear blue. And, no, your...
Maybe I'll just get a tap water filter and just run the water through it before I use it. I saw one at Petco for about $60, so maybe I'll do some research and...
water tap filters can be found alot cheaper then that Look around. Even Brita makes an On-Tap filter for around $30 that will filter out heavy metals, and...
Yeah, That's what I figured. That's why I didn't buy the thing when I saw it. It will be another week or so before I buy anything, so that will give me plenty...
Sounds like someone escaped the wrath of the skunk! I'm glad to hear it since that definately rules out a freak disease (if the skunks bein alive didn't ...
I think the zebra's saving grace may actually have been my two pictus cats. I've been keeping an eye on the little guy and he's been shacking up with the...
